The Pascal’s Triangle project was a two part piece that referred to the work of mathematician, Blaise Pascal. The booklet on Pascal’s Triangle is an educational resource aimed at replacing the traditional math text book. While the subject of math can be a mentally draining exercise, the traditional math textbook also creates a physical drain on the student. Instead of having to carry one 5lbs textbook to class, this booklet creates a portable lightweight text for the student to bring to class. Also, as opposed to having an entire year’s worth of lessons and plans, the booklet streamlines what the student needs to know for the specific unit he or she is currently studying. Part two of the project was a classroom poster created as a continuation of the Pascal’s Triangle booklet. As the booklet was an educational tool, the Pascal’s Triangle poster aimed to engage students and encouraging stimulation in the subject matter of math. The concept behind this poster was to create a playful response to the age old student questions, “When will I ever come across math in real life?”. The result was a 10 foot tall installation of Pascal’s Triangle in a real world environment. The project was photographed and documented by my good friend David Lang.
